Adobe Photoshop CS2 CLASSROOM IN A BOOK [Electronic resources] نسخه متنی

Lesson overview

In this lesson, you'll learn how to do the following:

Create clipping groups so that an image on one layer can be a mask for artwork on other layers.

Create layer sets to organize and manage layers.

Add adjustment layers to an image, and use them to apply color and tonal adjustments without permanently changing pixel data.

Create knockout layers to use one layer selectively to reveal others.

Import layers from other Photoshop files.

Work with type layers.

Duplicate and clip layers.

Add layer styles to a layer, and apply the effects to multiple layers.

Rasterize layers.

Convert clipping paths to masks.

Liquify a layer, giving it a melted appearance.

Flatten and save a layered file, greatly reducing its file size.
